Why are you messing with CPYFRMIMPF? Pretty much putting a gun to your head

Interesting that this should come up today since I'm in the middle of working on an Open Access handler to avoid the use of both cpyfrmimpf _and_ having to use the raw IFS APIs.

I'm using Scott's excellent CSVR4 parser to handle the IFS processing - 'cos I just hate reinventing wheels.
